E ʻimi ʻia aʻe ana nā pōkā i pahū ʻole ma kahakai o Mākua.
ʻO ia aʻela kekahi poʻo nūhou o kēia lā, ka lā 4 o ʻApelila, he Pōʻakolu. Welina e nā makamaka. ʻO Ke Aolama kēia a penei ka nūhou.
He papahana ʻimi pōkā pahū ʻole kai hoʻomaka iho nei ma kahakai o Mākua i ka Pōʻakahi nei. Na ka Pūʻalikoa e hoʻolilo ana he $3.5 miliona ma ia hana i mea e pau ai nā pōkā i pahū ʻole e waiho wale ana ma laila. I holo ka manaʻo e hana pēlā ma muli o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi pōkā he ʻelima ʻīniha ka lōʻihi i ka makahiki 2016. Ua hai ʻia nā mea nāna ka ʻimi ʻana aku. A he ʻelua mahina a emi mai paha ka lōʻihi o nei papahana. ʻO ka nui o kahi e ʻimi ʻia ai, he 22 ʻeka a aia nō ma kahi i loaʻa ai ia pōkā i ka makahiki 2016. Ma nā lā noa wale nō ka hana. Inā e loaʻa ka pōkā i pahū ʻole a he hiki ke hoʻoneʻe ʻia, e lawe ʻia i uka o ka ʻāina a hiki i kahi kūpono no ka hoʻopahū ʻia ʻana.
I ka lā i nehinei, ua ʻā aʻela ke ahi ma Pālolo Homes ma ke alanui ʻo Ahe a ma hope iki mai, pahū aʻela kekahi mea. Ua ʻeha ihola he ʻekolu mau kānaka, a lawe ʻia akula i ka haukapila. ʻO kekahi, aia nō ma ke kūlana kūpilikiʻi. ʻO ka lua, aia ma ke kūlana kūkonukonu. A ʻo ke kolu, ma ke kūlana paʻa. Ua kuhi ʻia, he pahu ea ola māmā kai pahū, akā, aia nō ka ʻOihana Kinai Ahi ke noiʻi akula i ke kumu o ka pahū ʻana.
Eia mai kā kākou ʻōlelo noʻeau,
Neʻe aku, neʻe mai ke one o Punahoa.
He ʻōlelo kēia no ke kanaka hiki ʻole ke holo kona manaʻo, koho i kekahi ʻaoʻao a laila, loli kona manaʻo. A he ʻōlelo paha no kahi hui i mahae lua.
